TIME Continues as Title Sponsor for IRONMAN 70.3 Putrajaya for 2016 and 2017 Edition

IRONMAN Asia Pacific is delighted to announce the continuation of TIME dotCom (TIME) as the title sponsor for the 2016 and 2017 IRONMAN 70.3 Putrajaya.

This partnership renews TIME’s commitment towards the continued growth and success of this multi-sport in Malaysia. After a successful collaboration in 2015, both TIME and IRONMAN are looking forward to even more participation this year.

The IRONMAN events are strongly supported by Malaysia Major Events, a division of Malaysia Convention and Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB), an agency under the Ministry of Tourism and Culture, Malaysia.

"We are happy and proud to have TIME back as the Title Sponsor of IRONMAN 70.3 Putrajaya for the next two years. TIME’s commitment towards the development of triathlons in Malaysia has shown great results, with one of Team TIME’s very own athletes qualifying for the 2016 IRONMAN World Championship in Kona Hawaii,”

said Mr Geoff Meyer, CEO of IRONMAN Asia Pacific.

The 2016 TIME IRONMAN 70.3 Putrajaya will be held on 3 April 2016 at the magnificent administrative city of Putrajaya. The 3rd Malaysian edition of the half distance IRONMAN will start off from Anjung Floria, located at Precinct 4, with a 1.9 km swim in the beautiful lake of Putrajaya, followed by a 90 km bike ride across the districts of Putrajaya, Cyberjaya and Sepang, and finally a 21 km run around the core island of Putrajaya. The event expects to attract close to 1,500 athletes from all over the world.

Title Sponsor, TIME, a data-centric telecommunications provider in Malaysia, encourages all Malaysians to push their limits and fight for a spot in the 2016 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in the town of Mooloolaba, Queensland, Australia on 4 September 2016. TIME will subsidise the entry fees, accommodation and flight expenses for the top performing Malaysian male and female athletes who qualify for the World Championships.
